Spell checking is a Firefox feature that needs to be enabled in a text box to function. I'm not sure of the encoding needed for it - but it is possible to have some form input types not recognised by Firefox as text, and therefore needing spell che…

@shivafang - Possibly you could have the summary/preview mechanic of CMS sites - where an automated cut is made after the first paragrah (unless you put one in manually). The purpose of the summary is to show short articles in a time-added list …

Have lunch with my wife, take a day off work, eat chocolate and play computer games all day. Sadly, it only happens very. very rarely (about once every 10 years) - I'm far too chipper almost constantly.

RSS feed on site status would be nice. It's fine to see "down from" but would be good to get a notification when it's back again.

I recommend "VirtualDub":http://www.virtualdub.org/ - it's been out for a very long time and is a free video editor.

I'm mostly thinking of players that have characters with secrets that other players should not be aware of :)

A print stylesheet is also a good step towards making a website mobile friendly IMHO.

xhtml compliant? No open tags or anything? Could be stricter on the site. Hmm, let me try parsing it through oxygen. Looks alright. Hmm, you haven't got all the mandatory fields though, missing template author - dsf_dst_author There's anoth…

Ah - dang. But that does make me think of conflicts - this came up recently when I was trying to update a module for Drupal actually - two things with the same name. I'm thinking there may be javascript additions beyond the jquery included in th…

It shouldn't be hard for someone to modify the 3.5 sheet for Pathfinder (someone who has the game that is and knows the differences). Ah, just read on the "dynamic sheet site":http://www.obsidianportal.com/dynamic_sheet_templates that someone is …

I don't have a problem with your sheet on my PC here, barsoomcore. I can edit all the fields. Although I have noticed if I have bad syntax in the example data javascript - it will cause problems on the page with jquery.

* A jack of plates (basically a late medieval leather coated lorica segmentata) with sallet and pauldrons (I sold the arm harness, mail, swords and daggers). From my re-enactment days. * A few thousand lead miniatures - only 10% of them are still …

I have of course, made a game variant for Temeraire - if you are familian with the Wings of War card/miniatures game of dueling biplanes and triplanes, you can find it here- "Dragons of War":http://www.curufea.com/Wikka/wikka.php?wakka=DragonsofWar

"The Glass books of the Dream Eaters":http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Glass_Books_of_the_Dream_Eaters by Gordon Dahlquist is the current steampunk book I'm reading. I also recommend the YA book "Leviathan":http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leviathan_%2…

There are a number of novels for Shadowrun as well - including one with the title "Never Deal With A Dragon" I have some of them (you can see them "here":http://www.librarything.com/catalog/curufea&deepsearch=shadowrun ) I've played the game m…

I highly recommend the Weta graphic novels as well- "Weta website":http://www.wetanz.com/holics/index.php?catid=4 I've not bought any of their props though - bit expensive as they're professional movie quality.

They talk about it on their forums. One Monk himself though has gone back to making free paper miniatures.

@Meadhands - I've found the harshest critics of continuity in a setting have always been the designer of the setting. Unless a player specifically wants to do something that is logical, common sense and scientific in the setting and they can't beca…

Another option is to get into designing and selling paper miniatures, Duskreign. I often frequent the Onemonk forums, and many of those guys have shops on RPGnow and elsewhere- http://onemonk.proboards.com

Once you start working on things such as population and looking at adding realism to your setting, taking it away for the pulp melodrama style - where only the PCs matter and minor details are unimportant (I've run Fantasy Hero games this way) - tha…

Medieval demographics only apply to no magic or low fantasy settings. You do need to factor in the wandering monsters versus the benign peasant magic variables. In general I think the designers of D&D had the wild west in mind when creating the…

Fame is good, I hope it encourages people to use the online collaboration sites I've got set up. The Matrix in particular for DWAITAS. After 5 years I got very few people adding anything to the Hero System wiki I set up. I really should have stop…

You can play "mine":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaigns/paradox-diaspora, but it's not a typical Doctor Who game. There's no Doctor (or for that matter Time Lords or running around time and space in a TARDIS). On the other hand you can chat…

Meh, slow day at work. I would like to use text areas though and that talk of arrays would be good too, for the traits. I should do some javascript for it as well - the skills should create a subskill or "specialisation" field if they have 3 or …

Personally, I'm using images of the voice actors from the series the game is set in for the NPC characters who may turn up.
